(Windows XP desktop, LO 3.3.0)
just noticed: the "search" function DOES NOT find ordinary brackets:
(, ), [, ] etc. (not regular expression etc. ...) THESE are not any
form of special characters. Every software I know of with a search
function can find these ASCII characters. What is so special about
them, that LO does NOT find them (they are right there on the screen!).
I'm not sure what you mean by "(not regular expression etc.
...)". If you have "Regular expressions" ticked in the Find &
Replace dialogue, then parentheses and (square) brackets are indeed
special characters - as are braces.
Recently I have started working with LO, but this kind of really
stupid "problems" makes me wonder ...
Does this really count as "stupid"?
In case there is a solution, I would like to hear it.
o If you are not using regular expressions, remove the tick from
"Regular expressions".
o If you are using regular expressions, you need to escape each
special character with a backslash. A search for \( or \) will find
your parentheses.
I trust this helps.
